Yet here we are roughly a month later, and things are looking up in Philadelphia. Not only are the Eagles playing for the NFC championship on Sunday, Wentz’s rehab is going better than expected. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, Wentz is “doing great early on in his recovery.”

Garafolo went on to add that the Eagles are “confident he’s going to be back well ahead of week one.”

Now that’s quite a bit of important news for both the Eagles and their fans. Many were concerned that Wentz’s injury would force him to miss time during the regular season next year.

While the Eagles are surely focused on getting ready for the Minnesota Vikings, Wentz is still the franchise’s cornerstone. His recovery is key to Philadelphia’s success in the future, and Garafolo certainly brightened the moods of Eagles fans ahead of Sunday’s game with this report.
